MAKEOVER: Gentle Repair For Broken Blonde

Crista Lydia Chavez (@beautybycristachavez), a colorist at Platinum Hair Salon, Caldwell, Idaho, says her over-processed client "had been doing her hair at home, overlapping lightener each process. There was a lot of breakage was at the ends and near the face frame."

Here Chavez shares the details for this correction:

Starting levels: 1 inch of level 4 for base area. Levels 7 and 8 on Mid strands and some level 10 from mid-strands to ends.

Breeanna Weinhold has had quite a journey with one of her clients who came in with splotchy, orange, halfway color removed hair that had some pieces longer than waste length and some that were shorter from being chemically melted off. Get the details for the makeover here.

After six months of not coloring her hair, this client recognized she is low-maintenance when it comes to her service schedule. Here's how a hairdresser who LOVES doing color corrections helped her out.

Laila Pettersen, @laila.wella, is an educator for Wella Professional, Norway. Just like gems form over time, Pettersen’s creation required patience and skill. She wanted to take her client from dull to shining brilliance and used Wella’s Opal-Essence shades, applied in sections with a gloved hand, to achieve the end result.

Nowadays clients are more focused than ever on healthy ingredients, so being able to offer vegan hair color gives Cousins a unique position as a salon owner. What’s more, he says, as a business owner, he benefits from ongoing coaching from Paul Mitchell on the business of hair color.

This client expressed an interest in going blonde after years of wearing a deep brunette shade. A great colorist decided to use multiple techniques to ensure enough brightness within the ends, resulting in a multidimensional seamless blend.
